The real reason he didn’t want to shit, was because he learned that moths are attracted to it and he is deathly afraid of moths.

Many species of butterlies and moths eat honeydew, aka aphid poop, so no nectar needed. Also the larvae do the bulk of the eating. Imagos of lepidoptera only need to survive not grow so food requirements are fairly low.

Can somebody explain the comment? They all look like butterflies, not moths

Oldest known butterfly fossils are 56 million years old. Moths are much older. The picture is of butterflies but the fossils are going to be moths.

What did they eat? Or was it only caterpillars eating and butterflies fucking everywhere? Man the Permian was freaky?
Also why are they not 2 metres wide? Disappointing.

Realistically speaking, would they even be able to support a body that large on those types of wings? Or would they have to evolve some form of rigid structure like a bird or bats wings?

Worked fine for Dragonflies. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meganeura They had wingspans of up to 75 centimeters.

‘Butterflies with bat wings feeding on dwarf mammoths’ now a thing in my mind

Legends say some of the original moths are still flying towards it.
